The Accreditation Portfolio of ToU

As a state-recognised university, the Tomorrow University is under the Hessian Ministry of Science and Art. To ensure high standards of academic rigour, all programs are additionally accredited by the relevant supervisory authorities.

As a university specialising in distance learning programs, accreditation by the Central Agency for Distance Learning (ZFU) is of particular importance. ZFU focuses on consumer protection to ensure that study contracts and fees are transparent and fair.

The bachelor's programs at Tomorrow University are accredited by the German Accreditation Council through the Foundation for International Business Administration Accreditation (FIBAA). The Impact MBA program is accredited by the German Accreditation Council through the Accreditation, Certification, and Quality Assurance Institute (ACQUIN).

The Master of Science in Sustainability, Entrepreneurship & Technology is offered in partnership with the WU Executive Academy. The WU Executive Academy takes academic lead and awards the degree through the Vienna University of Economics and Business.

Study Progress in the Example of MBA Sustainability, Innovation & Leadership

The Impact MBA program offers two study options tailored to students' academic background and career goals:

90 ECTS Track: This track can be completed in 18 months and requires at least 180 ECTS from a bachelor's degree. 60 ECTS Track: This track can be completed in one year and requires at least 210 ECTS from previous degrees (e.g. an extended bachelor's or a master's).

While both tracks cover core content, the 90 ECTS track offers three elective modules and the 60 ECTS track offers one elective module. Students can develop their own specialization by choosing modules that best fit their interests and goals—or follow a specialized program path.

The ToU study program consists of four phases:

Orientation Phase: Students begin by mastering the program's six competency areas. Their personal vision forms the basis for specialization, competency development, and mindset cultivation. Calibration Phase: In this phase, students deepen their knowledge by completing Impact Certificates in their chosen specialization area. A specialization does not need to be chosen in advance; it can be flexibly determined during the course of the program. Elevation Phase: This phase focuses on solving problems aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These challenges are co-designed and delivered with industry partners. Activation Phase: In this phase, students implement their innovative ideas. They work towards their project's goals, supported by peers, industry experts, and mentors.

The learning journey begins with the Tomorrow University app, serving as access to the online campus. The mobile and desktop app seamlessly integrates into everyday life. Instead of lectures or recorded sessions, there are 7- to 30-minute learning units. Approximately 10 hours per week are allocated for study. Concise lessons and milestones ensure all tasks are completed on time.

The study content of the Impact MBA includes:

Orientation (15 ECTS): Learning Insights, Mission Identification, Sustainability Foundations, Build Your Dream Team, Responsible Leadership & Organizations, Introduction to Innovation, Strategy Development, Group Challenge. Calibration (1 or 3 Electives – 15/45 ECTS): Think & Act Like a Leader, Leading the Change, Leading with Numbers, Leading with Technology, Leading Towards Sustainable Growth, Improve the Impact of Your Organization, Sustainability Management, Climate Accounting & Reporting, Foundations of Climate Sciences, Climate Advocacy & Policy, Mental Health & Well-Being, Clean Energy & GreenTech, Inclusive Leadership & Diversity Management, Green Marketing & Strategic Brand Communications, Get Funding Ready, Prototype Impactful Solutions.

Each 3-month module (Impact Certificate) is divided into shorter Challenges (3-week mini-modules). The weekly schedule includes asynchronous learning phases, optional events, and a mandatory live session per week. The learning app is designed to ensure that students stay on track and complete their tasks on time.

At Tomorrow University, there are no traditional exams. Instead, the curriculum is based on a practical approach where students learn through real projects and apply their skills directly in industry-specific scenarios.
